Sending out forms can be a way for nonprofit organizations to gage interest in certain activities, get to know their volunteers better, or invite benefactors to upcoming events. With JotForm there are endless amounts of form templates a charity can chose from. From Lead Generation forms, event registration forms, surveys, donation forms, and polls- chances are there’s a form for every type of nonprofit.

According to “Giving USA” over $390 billion dollars was donated to charities across the country in 2016. While this may seem like an astronomical number, it’s only a little more than 2% of the entire Gross Domestic Product (GDP) or in layman’s terms; disposable income. According to Philanthropy Roundtable, while the monetary amount of charitable donations have increased year over year, the GDP has stayed put at around 2% for over 60 years. This is interesting because as a country we’ve gotten wealthier that one could assume that the percentage that we as a nation donate would increase as well.

A user signs in to one website. Then they have to sign in to another, and another. Each platform has a different user name and password and trying to remember all of them can prove to be difficult and time consuming.

“As long as people are talking to each other face to face we can build a better tomorrow,” entrepreneur and inventor Andrew Zenoff told me. Zenoff took this idea and founded BEAM Authentic- the first social network that blurs the boundaries of the Internet into the real world.

6ya may not increase donor awareness or replace a CRM tool, but it has the ability to save a nonprofit organization money each year. Most software is geared towards helping charities and nonprofits function whether it’s a CRM that helps it do day-to-day activities or an analysis software that records and analyses new traffic to their website. Instead, 6ya works by assisting the charity with problems around the work place that threaten to eat at a nonprofit’s capital.

Donors cannot donate to a nonprofit organization if they do not know that organization exists. A fundraiser can’t be successful if no one knows about it. These are two reasons why nonprofits and charities are turning to digital ad agencies to expand their charity. It’s no longer enough to create a Facebook page and hope that potential donors and volunteers will “like” a charity’s page and donate to their cause.
